arrow icon. Holiday Season of Conscience  -- End Child Labor Campaign
No one wants to purchase products made by children, teenaged girls--or any workers-- stripped of their rights and forced to work long hours in harsh sweatshop conditions under armed guards for wages of 20-30¢ an hour. The people of the United States deserve the chance to raise our voices and affirm the dignity of life and human rights over corporate indifference and greed.

Coffee harvesters sort red and green coffee cherries, a task that takes long hours and yields low wages I enjoy coffee every day, including Sundays in my home church, Bellaire United Methodist Church in southwest Houston. Until recently, I did not think about the men and women who labored to grow the coffee in my cup. Now I see how a small decision, like the brand of coffee I buy, can make a difference in their lives.

Asbury United Methodist Church from Maitland, Florida sent a mission team to Jayaque, El Salvador from May 31 to June 7, 2003. Our mission was to build homes for victims of the 2001 earthquakes, offer Vacation Bible School for the local children, and to build relationships with the people of El Salvador. This was a return trip for our church as we sent a team to Jayaque in 2002. We were very excited to return and once again serve in Jayaque.

Thanks to those of you who have called, sent email messages, and prayed for us here in battered El Salvador. Carter and I and our friend Brian (who had the bad luck to be visiting this week!) are all together and fine after yesterday's 7.6 scale earthquake that went from Costa Rica to Mexico. Apparently, most of the damage (and the epicenter of the earthquake) are here in El Salvador.
